Microsoft Game Studios released Halo 3 back in 2007 on the Xbox 360 console, and 343 Industries, now known as Halo Studios, recently teased us with an Unreal Engine 5 showcase reel. A YouTuber decided to pit some of these scenes against each other in a side-by-side comparison video.
It’s safe to assume that the Unreal Engine 5-powered version will retain the first-person perspective gameplay, with most of it taking place on foot. What we’re waiting to see is how the new game engine handles vehicular combat, including the Warthog, Mongoose, Elephant, Hornet and Prowler.
- Buildable Renegade Banshee aircraft vehicle inspired by Halo: The Series
- This Banshee features authentic detail, poseable wings and cockpit with working door
- This building set includes 2 highly detailed, super poseable and collectable figures
They got the visuals mostly nailed on the engine. The only thing that looks off to me is the Chief’s armor, as it looks a bit too plastic-y in some shots (especially the shot of him holding the energy sword). Now we just have to see if they can nail the game feel in Unreal. We’ll see, but this is a good first step at least,” said one commenter.
